if it decreases a hitbox its nerf.

There’s no more Soulsagna

REAPFIELD!!!

frankly, the hitbox and animation need to match.
Whether one comes to the other doesnt matter.
They need to be as pixel perfect as shields are in game.

Im making a video right now about it. slow it down as well.

25

I disagree with pixel perfect, maybe give the animation a tiny bit of leeway but make it not as much as the current deflect if the nerf is necessary.

26

it needs no leeway, it already has the advantage over “priority to the shooter”.
There is no reason to give it any more advantage - let us see exactly where the deflect zone is, so we can shoot around it. Period.

It needs some leeway, Im not saying give it a football fields range but it needs something to keep it from being trashed. Deflect as an ability would be very weak if you knew exactly where it stopped. Maybe have 5-10% of the hitbox being able to not be shown.

as some who plays genji a whole lot {i mean my name…} he hit box has been made smaller a whole lot from wehn we started and frankly making it smaller is a nerf i already have times when i feel like it should have deflected soooo as a genji main yes. this is a nerf. {coming from someone who has played on pc and xbox with 123 combined}

You might have editied it that doesnt mean I said that.
if it decreases the hitbox its a nerf. noit what your quote said dont be misleading to people that just makes you lose credibility.

31

you dont even know what the nerf is yet.

32

Are any of the shield abilities trash because you can see the exact edge of them and can shoot around it?
NO
This is no different.
Deflect needs no leeway. NONE.

200+ Hr Genji main (PS4 and PC combined) Not to mention over my experience from the shooters perspective it only starts deflecting if it hits the middle of the hilt to the end of the blade. Compensation for the reduction would be at least make it not play the sound if deflect did not go through, I get so angry when it makes the sound and it should have worked but doesnt.

It might be a deflect hitbox nerf it might not but Im just giving my opinion on it before hand.

3 Genji’s wide and 2 Genji’s tall was the length of the hitbox…

Thats a huge over exaggeration. I am uploading the video and will post it when it finishes uploading.

37

how many genji’s from front to back?

38

Because you actually want to SHOOT at the shield.

Deflect you want to stop shooting at, but having a little leeway wont make it completely broken, as if the glowing red swipes werent apparent enough.

39

I know you didn’t “say it” hint why I fixed it for you that way you don’t make mockery of yourself on here.

They said they are fixing deflect’s hitbox.

Smirks I am sorry. I thought this was funny. How exactly is my quote misleading? I am just trying to inform you that a fix is a fix. :kissing_heart:
